Hearings and appeals
An employer who disagrees with a determination concerning liability for UI contributions or the benefit status of a former employee has 30 days from the date of the determination to ask for a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge.
Employers dissatisfied with an Administrative Law Judge’s decision can appeal to the Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board within 20 days from the date of mailing of the decision, provided the employer appeared or was represented at the hearing. Instructions for filing an appeal to the Board are shown on the Administrative Law Judge’s decision. There is no charge for making these appeals.
Decisions of the Appeal Board may be appealed to the Appellate Division of the New York State Supreme Court, Third Department, within 30 days of the mailing of the Appeal Board decision.
